Background of Somali Coast-land
Societies
With the abdication of President Siad Barre in
1989, the country of Somalia was thrown in a state of anarchy. The
country is currently ruled by a series of warlords each holding
a small section of the country. The rival factions have been at
war with each other since the mid-eighties and a mission by the
United Nations to stabilize the country has now ended in apparent
political failure. The war led to a serious famine that was solved
by the intervention. Less publicized was the exploitation of the
Somali crisis by firms who specialize in the disposal of hazardous
waste.
Somalia and its Coast-land Society
have been seriously affected by civil-war which started on May 1988
in north-west and then spread central and southern part of the country.
The break down of low and order after the previous government was
overthrown has created a massive devastation of human lives as well
as destruction of both public and privet properties. Coast-land
Society was the most war affected groups.
Coast-land

Coastland Fishing Society (Colfis) in Somalia has established this
Non-governmental Organization, (LNGO) for development
and to restore the activities of fishing operations in the Coast-lands
